Yup this one is real,

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime...in-prison-and-certain-deportation/ar-AAmOIuF?

Despite repeated statements by Republican political leaders that American elections are rife with illegal voting, credible reports of fraud have been hard to find and convictions rarer still.

That may help explain the unusually heavy penalty imposed on Rosa Maria Ortega, 37, a permanent resident and a mother of four who lives outside Dallas. On Thursday, a Fort Worth judge sentenced her to eight years in prison — and almost certainly, deportation later — after she voted illegally in elections in 2012 and 2014.

I say we spend millions more to route out another five fraudulent voters!!!

You mean you'll never, ever be able to say there's no illegal aliens that voted again? Damn shame.

Nobody with any sense says it has never happened, only that the rate is so vanishingly small that we shouldn't disenfranchise legitimate voters with onerous restrictions trying to prevent it.

And apparently a Republican.

"Ms. Ortega was a registered Republican.

“She voted for Mitt Romney over Barack Obama in the 2012 election. In 2014 she voted for our current attorney general, Ken Paxton,” Mr. Birdsall said. “And guess what? He’s the one responsible for prosecuting her.”

And I should believe her lawyer about that why?

hmm, 8 years in prison for 2 fraudulent votes? Anyone want to do some napkin math on the cost to incarcerate for four years each the 3 - 5 million fraudulent voters Trump assures us totally exist?

Fraudulent illegal voters are kind of like cockroaches, there's always more than you can easily find.

Here's a deal lets pretend you & I are the decision makers.

I'll agree to a 500 million spending bill to prosecute illegal voters. You decide what gets taxed to pay
You agree to 500 million planed parenthood spending that will get paid for by cuts to useless/unwanted military spending plus a aggressive welfare fraud investigation 50-50 split on both.

Deal?
